Today’s walk: Scotney Castle
On our way to Margate for the weekend to spend time with my father-in-law, we made a quick stop at Scotney Castle to collect another stamp in Breezy’s Pooch Passport.
Arriving just 15 minutes before the last admission, we knew we wouldn’t have time to explore all the grounds. Instead, we focused on a walk around the castle’s moat and through the gardens, finishing with a coffee (and a mince pie for Richard). Even though our visit was brief, we got a lovely feel for the place, and I’m hopeful we can return in the future to explore more thoroughly.

Today’s walk: Christmas carols at Chartwell
As we arrived at Chartwell, the rain was beginning to ease. After a coffee and a spot of lunch, we ventured into the grounds. While getting Breezy’s Pooch Passport stamped, the reception staff mentioned that carollers were singing near the house. But with Breezy full of energy and in need of a good walk, we decided to prioritize some woodland exploration.
The woods didn’t disappoint, offering plenty of trees and intriguing traces of woodland mammals to keep Breezy’s brain busy. As we wandered, the sound of carols floated through the trees, creating a beautiful and almost magical atmosphere. It felt like we’d struck the perfect balance between a festive mood and an invigorating walk.
